Outro

Brian shares a lesson that hit close to home. Straight from a weekend running the New York City Marathon, Monday Night Football, and quality time with his dad.

We've all experienced relationships that drift or dissolve. A friend, a colleague, a partner — someone who suddenly feels more like a stranger. And when that happens, the default story we tell ourselves is: They meant to hurt me.

But what if they didn't?

Enter Hanlon's Razor: Never attribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance, miscommunication, or simple human error.

In business and in life, the assumption of bad intent wastes energy, kills relationships, and creates enemies that never actually existed. Brian breaks down how this mental model has helped him rethink conflict, stay level-headed in leadership, and preserve important connections.

If you're leading a team, building a business, navigating family dynamics… this episode is a reminder to pause before you react and seek clarity before you cast judgment.
